Based on today's drop, it's bot or bust for NT. Much more limited supply and 20x the demand. There are so many non-sports-card people doing this, and the new website is aweful.

Why should it be bot or bust? I don't think the new website is that great but I don't think it's at a point where you need a bot or you're out.

It was rough.

If it means anything, it was the first time I was shut out of a FOTL release that I participated in (excludes those I didn't participate in, some of which, I regret hahaha)

someone said that there were only 600 of the boxes available today, Which is about 1/4th or so of the usual FOTL quantity.

Yeah it was rough today. Kicked me out of the app. Old app was a lot better.

So does panini check if you have 2 accounts? I was thinking of creating another so I could try 1 one my phone and 1 on a desktop. Not so much to get 2 but more so to try both methods in case 1 works better then other. If I got 2 boxes to the same address it might get flagged tho ?

Yes, for White Sparkle packs and Football Contenders Draft Picks FOTL. Had its issues and got packs/boxes both times.

Incredibly busy for a fairly low level release with marginal interest. The amount of people going for NT is going to cause the website to go bezerk. Have all your good luck charms ready for NT

Based on past trends, looks like Friday. It would be nice if they dropped these at random, but I guess since they let their employees order them, that would be no good.

today was 1st time i've ever attempted to buy a FOTL release and been unsuccessful (i don't use a bot or anything, just the app).
App wouldn't even load after hitting "add to cart" and website kept giving me "please select shipping" notification.
Not sure which is best to try next time around, but I miss the old app!

This was my first miss on something I tried for as well. I just know I bought some Select FOTL from a local guy this year, and he got 12 boxes between himself, his sister, and a co-worker. When I went to pick them up he said "I hope you hit a... uh... is it Donhmpfks...?" Guy had no idea what they were buying, just that they could be sold for profit.

Secret's long been out on this one. It's a new game.

While I can appreciate giving everyone a shot I think Panini allowing employees to get em is asking for trouble. Based on resale value, greed will find a way.

I'm sure they've always been doing it. Easy way to double their yearly salary. Just keep the stacks of Luka and Trae RPA's away from employees.

I wish Panini can do the checkout process differently. Would be better if everyone be placed in an online "waiting room" and random individuals are picked to checkout with 2 min. or so to checkout. Make the whole process run smoother...
